International badman killa
Pull up in a Benz you go re-consider
I don't know why the girl them shiver
I don't know why the girl them do that
J'mapelle, the girl them sugar
We no give kiss, only keys to the beamer
I don't know why the girl them do that
Anywhere we go, two, three girls we get in a row
Badman killa if you never know
We run the thing everybody know
Every other night we dey kill another show
Say she need a man we go make her lose control
You know that you fine me love
Penthouse in the w, that is how we do
Oh woah-woah-woah

Baby, I've been rolling in my Lambo, daily
She go hala, she go scream oh "save me"
Badman a make the girls go crazy
Oh woah-woah-woah
Baby am drippin', no Gucci, no Fendi
When I pull up in a Benz you pay me
All days all the niggas fugazy

International badman killa
Pull up in a Benz you go re-consider
I don't know why the girl them shiver
I don't know why the girl them do that
J'mapelle, the girl them sugar
We no give kiss, only keys to the beamer
I don't know why the girls them do that

All my brother man them my real niggas
All my real niggas them my brother man
Say we no dey take food from another man
Everyday, I dey, I dey run my race
See my Balenciaga
Say we no dey fear man power
And we we come it's a wrap
The whole thing catch fire eh, eh

International badman killa
Pull up in a Benz you go re-consider
I don't know why the girl them shiver
I don't know why the girl them do that
J'mapelle, the girl them sugar
We no give kiss, only keys to the beamer
I don't know why the girls them do that

(Sensima, who got the keys to the beamer?,
Who got the keys to the beamer)
(Some are said who am I, girl them sugar
Who am I, badman killa)
(Sensima, who got the keys to the beamer

Overall Meaning

The first verse sets the tone for the rest of the song, showcasing the singer's confidence and arrogance. He pulls up in a Benz, causing the women to re-consider, seemingly shaken by his presence. Runtown goes on to explain that he does not kiss them, instead, hands over the keys to his Beamer. Throughout the song, Runtown emphasizes his status as a β€œbadman,” someone fearless and respected in his community.


The chorus repeats the opening lines, emphasizing the power Runtown holds over the women he meets. He explains that badman killas like himself run the show, and his Balenciaga sneakers represent his status as a symbol of opulence. The song ends with Runtown playing on the multiple meanings of his stage name, J’mappelle, leaving the listener to question his true identity.
